==Reconstructing the World in Six Days==
<br />
Researchers at the University of North Carolina have processed 100 million images from Yahoo and used the geolocation information of the camera, along with the image, to recreate a 3D model of various buildings.   Once the 3D object is reconstructed, computer software can be used to "move" around the object.   The video shows such reconstructions.  8 min 30 sec.

==Mike Tyka, The Art of Neural Networks==
<br />
(With thanks to MJ Wraga for discovering this video)<br />
From the YouTube page:  "Mike Tyka, who is both artist and computer scientist, talks about the power of neural networks. These algorithms are capable to transform computers into artists that can generate breathtaking paintings, music and even poetry."
